Question

All solids expand equally when heated to the same rise in temperature.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

1. Every substance expands on heating, this is called thermal expansion.
2. When a solid is heated, due to its fixed shape and fixed volume expands in all directions.
3. The expansion in the solid depends upon the nature of the material.
4. It means, that for different materials the thermal expansion in the solids is different for an equal rise in temperature.

Thus, the given statement is false.
